Littlefeat worth checking out these days?

Recommended Posts

Thinking about catching a Littlefeat show on their winter tour when the stop in Asheville. Has anyone seen them? I’m way to young to have seen them before ‘79 when Lowell George was still around and obviously I don’t expect a whole lot from Bill Payne and the other older guys that are left.

Does anyone have experience seeing them lately?

Probably not much help but I’d go if it were close.

Yeah, that’s what I’m leaning towards Dead Duck... it’s cheap enough. Mainly wondering about how the crowd is? It’s at an auditorium that could go both ways (quiet/seated or standing/dancing). Didn’t know if the Littlefeat crowd gets down and dances or not.

I saw them fifteen years ago, two years in a row, at the Grand Opera House In Wilmington, De. Second year was lame but I also was distracted because when I got there I saw posters advertising DSO coming. It’s year, they played Dixie chicken into Tennessee Jed, back into Dixie Chicken, so, that was cool. I was one of a few dancers, no cared. Yea, if it’s close and cheap, go for it. A night of good music,
